Extreme Makeover: Home Edition
The show is hosted by Ty Pennington, formerly a carpenter on the show Trading Spaces. It is sponsored by Sears (and their properties, Craftsman and Kenmore), for which Pennington serves as a spokesman and which are prominently featured in the episodes. The series is devoted to rebuilding families' homes when the family is in need of new hope.
I cant believe the work these guys do for needy peeps in the US. The show I just watched, the dad was blind and the mum had had a stack of hip ops etc..Their house was dire and cockroach/ant infested. They built them a new home, they got their mortgage and hospital bills paid off and also as they were very much into the community they gave their community centre a makeover too.....The family also always get a vacation whilst the work is taking place, for some families its their first ever holiday together.
Have any of you US guys been privvy to one of these makeovers in your area?
